Get the sloped roof mug.

It's just a roof-rack

What you realize with relief when you thought dat there might have been a cop-car behind/ahead of you.

Regardless of whether "it's just a roof-rack" on a particular car dat's in your vicinity, you should still always be diligent about obeying da traffic laws --- not only should you do so in any case, but you also never know where da fuzz is gonna be at any given time.
